6 Ways to Put "Secure" Back in Secure Web Gateways

More malware today is machine-generated and one-off. With advanced malware also employing obfuscation and anti-sandboxing techniques, just how "secure" are secure web gateways? The reality is - many are just not that secure anymore. Based on 2015 breach investigations, Trustwave found that 42% of malware used encryption, underscoring the importance of having an advanced secure web gateway with the capability to inspect encrypted content.

Join our webinar where we will cover practical steps nearly any organization can take to optimize protection and policy control for your web users. We will be discussing real-world ideas on how to:
-Ensure real-time blocking of encrypted new malware.
-Easily keep policy optimized.
-Virtually patch web browsers, and more.

Tune in for this exclusive panel on the key factors for a successful security strategy. This is a Part 1 of 2 CISO panels during Black Hat exploring the ever-changing role of the CISO, the factors influencing their success and the elements needed to build a more cyber resilient enterprise.

Join top cyber security executives for an interactive Q&A roundtable discussion on:
- The changing role of CISO
- Why cybersecurity should be a key priority
- Key resources every CISO needs
- How to recruit, develop and retain security talent
- Why investing in your security culture matters
- Biggest cyber security challenges and how to overcome them

The session is being brought to you in partnership with ITSPmagazine and will be streamed LIVE from Las Vegas during Black Hat.

Join Mark Whitehead, Director, Spider Labs Americas at Trustwave for an exclusive interview at Black Hat 2018 in Las Vegas on the latest cyber threats and trends in cybersecurity. Some of the topics up for discussion will include:
- What are the 3-5 top cyber threats CISOs are worried about in 2018? What's new on the threatscape?

Cybercriminals are setting their sights on hospitality businesses across the U.S. and Europe with unprecedented malware attacks known as Carbanak, as part of precise and difficult-to-stop APT-style operation that we code-named 'Grand Mars'.

Our Trustwave SpiderLabs team of incident responders and researchers have spent months analyzing Grand Mars and its elements, and unlocking strategies that can be used to identify and mitigate this insidious campaign – which may soon spread to e-commerce and retail organizations as well.

Join our webinar where the author of the report will be sharing the findings including:

Your organization has its own unique IT infrastructure, business model, risk profile and tolerance. The best strategy for streamlining your annual Payment Card Industry (PCI) validation process is to make sure that your Qualified Security Assessor Company (QSA-C) employs a sound and forward-looking methodology for your assessments. A key first step is understanding the critical differences between risk acceptance and risk mitigation and the implications for your business.

Tune in to learn best practices in PCI services methodology and how they apply to your specific requirements. Michael Aminzade, VP of Global Compliance and Risk Services at Trustwave, will discuss:

Ransomware and CEO email fraud cause organizations billions of dollars in losses annually. These next level threats are so lucrative that they are accelerating hacking innovations and exploding attack frequencies. Ransomware damages user productivity, creates emergency work for IT and at least one CEO has been fired because of CEO email fraud. Security solutions and users have to be smarter than ever before.

Our Trustwave SpiderLabs researchers, security experts and thought leaders have gathered valuable insights and examples on how to help prevent ransomware and CEO fraud. We will be sharing their findings with you during this webinar, including:

• What these attacks look like to your users.
• The essentials and limitations of user training.
• Which automated techniques are most effective at stopping unknown attacks.

Join Alexander Norell, Director of Global Risk and Compliance Services at Trustwave, as he shares his insider view of what you can expect at the upcoming 2016 Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) Europe Community Meeting in October.

• Analyse the impact to the European community

Michael Osterman, President of Osterman Research, Inc., and Kevin Overcash, Director of SpiderLabs North America at Trustwave

One in five businesses don’t test for security vulnerabilities. A recent study by Osterman Research found that many businesses fail to conduct frequent security testing despite believing that it’s critically important to securing their systems and data.

In this presentation Michael Osterman, President of Osterman Research, Inc., will discuss key findings from the “Security Testing Practices and Priorities: An Osterman Research Survey Report”, including:

•Common types of security issues experienced in the past 12 months.
•The extent to which organizations take a proactive approach to security testing.
•Types of security testing conducted during the past 6 months.
•How often organizations conduct detailed review of security tests.
•Challenges faced by organizations in the context of security testing.

Trustwave offers advice for those looking to take back control of their cyber destinies.

Web application security differs significantly from other information security disciplines. In addition to encompassing other security disciplines such as encryption, authentication, network and operating system security, it requires specialized knowledge of web applications and coding techniques. Due to its abstract and multifaceted nature, it understandably may elude the grasp of executive management (“but we have a firewall . . .”) and, as a result, find itself at the bottom of the security budget totem pole.

In this presentation we will discuss the role that application security plays within enterprise security and points to evaluate when developing an effective and efficient web application security program that meets your considerations. Join this webinar to learn more about:

•The current state of web application security and its relationship to enterprise security.
•Why web application security is more complex than other security disciplines.
•The tasks that need to be performed in application security.
•The different methods of web application testing and mitigation.
•Available implementation options based on the in-house resource and budget constraints.

We will conclude the session with a discussion of a web application security methodology that will utilize the specialized skills of different members of your IT organization.

So, where do you start? What can you do right now to secure your databases with authority and finesse?

Join this webinar and learn:
• The top five threats to database security
• How a real-life database attack unfolds
